Halloween!

Finally, it was actually Halloween night and time to trick or treat!

The shark and dragon getting ready to head to our neighbors house:



Hanging out with Spider Man (Jack):



Brady being silly:



The first house:



The off to visit the rest of the neighborhood:



Brady and Kristy:



Then, relaxing and eating, while we passed out candy to all the other kids:

Monster Mash

They had a "Monster Mash" in Northfield that we went to.

There the boys got to make crafts:




Then they had a hula hooping contest- which neither boy wanted to participate in. So, Brady just stood there looking cute:



Then, we left to run around and climb and they boys had a blast:




My three favorite boys:

Jackson's Mask

Jackson went to a play date at his friend Alex's house. He made a mask that he absolutely loved:



And Brady loved it as well:

Brady and Avery

Oh the love...

Halloween at Paddington

Brady got dressed up to go to school at Paddington:



Here he is playing with his friend, Julian (aka Nemo):



And climbing:



And that is all I could capture that day. But, the kiddos all looked really cute and Brady had fun!

Houston

We finally made it to the last stop on our whirlwind vacation....Grandma and Poppy's house. Even though the boys were exhausted after a full week- we still had a great time.

Brady read and played with Poppy:




They got to play with Uncle Carlo:




Poppy and Grandma took them to the Aquarium...which both boys LOVED:





They also took them to a great park right by their house where the boys could play and feed ducks. Apparently, Brady ate all the white bread before the ducks could get any!






And here is a video that I found that Dustin took at the park:



We had such a great time in Texas. Thanks Poppy and Grandma for putting up with us on the tail end of a long trip!

Galeveston, Oh Galveston

Our next stop on the Texas road trip was Galveston where my mom, Grancy and Mr. Dan had a beach house for the week. It was the boys first trip to the beach and they had a blast. We were there Ocotber 19 through October 21.

Daddy and Brady checking out the beach from our balcony with Mr. Dan fishing in the distance:



Jackson getting his feet in the ocean for the first time...that he will be able to remember:



Jackson loved the ocean. He ran out right away and never looked back:






Brady was slightly more tentative, preferring to stay close to the beach and play in the tidal pools:






Brady did get braver as each day passed. He would get a little farther out into the water. But, he much preferred to play in the pools and sand and chase birds:





Dustin bought a boogey board and Jackson LOVED it:





Brady enjoyed the boogey board as well:





Jackson went out and fished with Daddy and Mr. Dan:




The boys played together, in the sand, with Grancy, looked for hermit crabs with Daddy and just overall had a blast!










My sweet boys!
